Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1355163A2] Method for testing a DC to AC voltage converter in which individual circuit elements (2) of the converter are selectively activated. Method has the following steps: application of a control pattern signal to the control input (PWM1-PWM3) of each phase; measurement of the resultant output voltage pattern (M) at each of the motor connections (M1-M3) using a single capacitive test line connected to each connection in turn; comparison of the control pattern with the output pattern; error detection based on differences in input and output signals. The invention also relates to a corresponding drive unit with numerical control.
